You quote yusaf Ali:

" All mankind was created one, and Gods Message to mankind is in essence one, the message of Unity and Truth. But as selfishness and egoism got hold of man, certain differences sprang up between individuals, races and nations, and in His infinite Mercy He sent them messengers and messages to suit their varying mentality, to test them by His gifts and stir them up to emulation in virtue and piety."

Very illuminating indeed! But the question is why he withheld his mercy since some 14 hundred years ago, as muslims believe, and stopped sending messengers. [/quote]

very disgusting indeed.
the purpose of sending messengers is to convey the message and the final " message"is available in written form  to any one who seeks mercy .The guidence and answers are there till the last day sun rises from east.So where is the question for new messenger?

Has humanity become one nation now? In fact even so called muslim ummah has got divided into numerous sects, some of them involved in perpetual internecine strife. Even in the days of the 'Khaatimulnabiyeen' the very tribe of Quresh had got divided into various sects,e.g., Muslimeen, Mushrikeen, Munafiqeen, kafireen, to count a few, in addition to their tribal rivalries which continued unabated. So the world, turned into a global village, is decidedly the worst place to day than it was before the prophets started coming in. The man is still 'Zalooman, Jahoolan' (cruel and ignorant) but all the more destructive armed with nuclear weapons.

In fact,the answer is precisely mentioned in the given verse, if you read the it before rushing to your conclusions.
wasnt it certain differences sprang up between nations  that causes two world wars,and  was not it the country but the egoism which dropped atom bomb on its rival ,what caused stallin to kill millions of his own people and its hate which drive  hitler to kill a particular community.

If faith devides alone then who told the intellectuals of the global world to devide as agnostics,athiests,secularists,humanists and neo cons etc.[/quote]
